Can anyone help with info on where/how to get hold of the Pin tool needed to adjust the monoshock on my luvely new XCA?
Didn't you get a spanner in the tool kit for that? They look like this : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3-Piece-C...006535?hash=item3cfa28a947:g:klQAAOSwrklVXGcg
Thanks for the words and link Steve, but a C spanner is not the tool I need. Its like a screwdriver but with two prongs/pins protruding from the business end.
my Tiger800 roadie (2013) takes a standard flat screwdriver, don't know exactly how yours is different but suggest you ask your Triumph dealer, if it's a special tool you should get it there.
A flat screwdriver for rebound adjustment but the two prong/pin tool is needed for preload. My local dealer knows about as much as I do about this.
Only just joined and just seen this post. I have a 2015 XCX which should have the same WP rear shock as the XCA. Rear preload adjusted using a 5mm hex / alan key. Rear rebound adjusted with a small flat head screwdriver. (ref pages 134 and 135 in owners handbook.) I adjust mine every now and again to make sure it the adjusters don't seize up.
